They aren't going to end a series that's so highly profitable... Some people may not want new films but they are in the minority. :yeshrug:


Can anyone tell me from a business standpoint why it should end? They are gonna do it for the $$$

The ONLY reason they're still going on is profit. Obviously that's all that matters, but the series has been declining in quality since Walker passed.

:yeshrug:THERES ONLY BEEN
2 MOVIES SINCE WALKER DIED.

ONE MORE ISNT GONNA HURT.
:devil:
:evil:

And they've both been bad. I just don't think a F&F movie with Diesel and Cena as the leading men has any shot of being great.

And apparently, they're asking for two movies since its Parts 1 and 2. But they'll get what they want, because these movies make money hand over fist.

I didn't watch him in FF9 but Cena is great in comedies. He killed it in Blockers.

So Cal
Vin is desperate for that Dwayne stimulus. Problem is Dwayne don’t need his money when he prints his own :wow:

Vin knows when the FF train is finally derailed he has nothing left to fall back on except for Groot :mjlol:
:stopitslime:F9 made just as much as the Dwayne spinoff during the pandemic.

The cost of making these movies is only going to increase and the revenue will surely go down as fans are already getting tired. Best to end it on a high and eat off the spin off cartoons, toys and other merch for a few years.

im not the one begging dwayne to come back to the series on multiple occasions including bringing up children and dead people to try and pressure him to return via the media :yeshrug:

im just presenting facts

he knows the series has been mindless machine churn out product for about 5 movies now so he needs dwayne to optimize his profits

dwayne however doesnt need him

happy holidays
